The latest MCNP6.3 includes a function to handle neutron up-scattering due to thermal agitation of heavy nuclides (DBRC function) in addition to the IFP-based kinetics parameter calculation and depletion calculation function implemented in MCNP6 and later. GNF-J is conducting verification and validation of various calculation functions of MCNP6.3 with the aim of replacing MCNP5_DBRC, which is used for design code verification and validation. This paper mainly reports the verification and validation results of the DBRC function and depletion calculation.
